That’s what I was seeing as well, was hoping one of the experts here could confirm that either way, so thank you!

Does anyone know if the ebrake mechanism on a 97 ranger is the same as a 97 explorer?

Does anyone know where a front brake cable (attaches to e-brake pedal) might be available for a 97 Ranger Reg Cab? Haven't checked Ford yet, but everywhere else seems to be on back order. Also, does anyone happen to know the length of this front cable? We've swapped a 97 Ranger Cab onto a 97...

Thank you!

I've tried searching and maybe didn't do a great job :) Does anyone wiring diagrams for 97? Looking for all interior wiring, and exterior(lighting, mirrors, air bag sensors etc). Thank you!

What years and versions will fit a 97 Regular cab? I was looking at an '04 super cab (i think that's it? The one with the half back doors). They look similar, but can't be sure. Doesn't seem to be a lot of regular cabs out there so just wondering if I can take from anything else? Thanks for your...

Hi everyone, Is anyone able to confirm if the gas pedal from a 97 explorer is the same as 97 Ranger? It bolts in fine and seems to operate the cable properly but just need to make sure. Also, I believe the front cable for emergency brake ( the one that connects to pedal) is different length and...

Got the final welding done!

The plan right now is get it off the garage floor so my wife can have her parking space back lol.Seriously, not sure yet. We'll get the engine bay and interior done since that covers 99% of the build. I'm assuming we'll have the fabricate something

Finally got the rear mounts fabricated and installed! Modified the Explorer core support by adding the top ends pieces from the Ranger to fill in the gap, and should have welder here this week to get it together for us. Also a cheap fix for the e-brake cable support since it originally passed...

Hmm, maybe I didn't get all of the weld out then. There was 4 for sure, but I'll double check that I didn't leave a little behind. Thanks!

Has anyone figured out how to remove the battery tray/assembly from a 97? I have drilled out 4 spot welds on the inner fender, and all spot welds on the core support.. hoping it would all come out as one piece. But it seems I missed something somewhere, like a hidden spot weld or bolt, or...

Thanks! It's my sons build, and it started with him wanting the gas struts and then realizing the hood had just a little more of a bump in the middle and thought it would look better than the mostly flat Ranger hood. It actually worked out well since as I understand it, if you want the gas...

After a couple months of doing nothing, we're finally getting back to it. Got the cab on the frame, core support is being drilled out this week so we can swap in the Explorer, and hopefully have rear cab mounts made up in the next couple weeks. In case anyone is wondering, the completely...

Life saver!! Thank you Angie!

The kits don't seem to look like the original, not sure if it even matters 😁

Does anyone know where body mount sleeves can be purchased for a 97 Explorer (not sure if they're the same as Ranger)? Had to replace all the bushings, and ended up destroying one of the sleeves for position 2.

Great description of this Ron, thank you! I just need to figure out the Explorer side now :) Going from the 4 window master switch with window lock on that to 2 windows with no window lock switch had me scratching my head 🙄

Thanks, really appreciate the help guys! The pins on the Explorer window switches have 7 pins, the Ranger has 5. And doesn't appear that the switch from the Explorer will go into the hole for the Ranger. Just trying to make sense of how to splice wires :)

Does anyone have a wiring diagrams for power window and door lock switches for a 97? I've tried searching but can't seem to find anything. I'm trying to figure out what wires I need from 4 door Explorer switches to work with the Ranger switches. Any help is appreciated!
